The Breitling Watch Source Forums

3 years ago, I didn't own a single 'real' watch.
Now I'm the really happy owner of three Breitlings. I spend much more time these days thinking about various strap options (I've bought one calf deployant, one croco deployant & another 2 croco tang's in the last year alone!) & am constantly thinking about what might be next.

I only have one watch wearing wrist.

Is there something wrong with me? Should I seek help?

Yes, sounds like you need help.

As far as I can see there is only 1 possible solution to help you out.....send all but 1 of your watches to me

You think you need help?
For 10 years I have been happy with just one Breitling.
I bought my second one in Dec 2011.
Then I found this forum and the rest is history, now I have eight.
Not sure if I should laugh or cry about this.

I think you may have a fourth Breitling that you forgot about, look at your signature.

Yes your right you do need help ! There's a 12 step program for what you got but before you can join you need to admit there's a problem and then buy 9 more Breitlings. then the healing can begin.

Watches are a great hobby to have. It's only April and I've purchased 5 brand new Breitlings in 2012... AND have since moved on and purchased multiple watches in better brands, so no you're not alone in your "addiction"! Breitlings are like a gateway drug, just wait until you start finding the better stuff!

Welcome to the asylum. Please leave your credit cards at the door.

Seriously, some people here go on wild, watch-crazy jags, others swear they will keep their two or three watches together and never buy or sell others. Some are slow and steady accumulators. Still others here go through a course of owning some watches, learning more about what's out there and figuring out over time what they want, getting there or close, and hoping against hope they stay in a contented place for a while. Others accumulate, sell them all, start over, rinse and reapeat. Where you are on this continuum is completely personal, but at least since you're relatively new to it, there's a chance things will calm down. As my wife sometimes tells me in resignation, at least watches are the things you acquire and dump so quickly.

I used to be a Rolex guy many years ago but sold all of them after I got hooked with Breitling.

Nobody does that!
